Homebrew Yextan Species Details

The Yextan are a horned race of sand dwellers. They come from the deserts, but now live in many small communities across the land, with few preferring to live in the confines of the city. They are born to plot, trap and ambush.

Yextan Traits

Yextan are dangerous, using their horns as a primary weapon since the old times.

It Comes From Below!

The Yextan are able to burrow underneath enemy lines, requiring a stealth check for every 50 feet moved. They have a burrow speed of 20 feet, and it uses 5 feet of burrow to dig into the earth.

Poisoned Horns

Yextan pride themselves on their horns. The horns excrete a red liquid that acts as a sedative. The poison can be harvested as an action. This poison can be used to coat a blade, as an action, and can be used 3 times a day. If the Yextan does not eat and drink the day prior, they cannot use their poison. The poison has a DC of 10 + the CON modifier of the Yextan it is from. The stronger the Yextan, the stronger their poison. 

 The poison, if save failed, makes the target charmed towards the Yextan, and is incapactiated until they pass the save.

(Note that the Save on the Action says 15 for the save, but that is at 20 CON.)
